ISOFIX anchorage and top-tether
anchorage (ISOFIX anchorages
system) for children
The ISOFIX system holds a Child
Restraint System during driving and in
an accident. This system is designed to
make installation of the Child Restraint
System easier and reduce the possibility
of improperly installing your Child
Restraint System.
The ISOFIX system uses anchors in the
vehicle and attachments on the Child
Restraint System. The ISOFIX system
eliminates the need to use seat belts to
secure the Child Restraint System to the
rear seats.
ISOFIX anchorages are metal bars built
into the vehicle. There are two lower
anchors for each ISOFIX seating position
that will accommodate a Child Restraint
System with lower attachments.
To use the ISOFIX system in your
vehicle, you must have a Child Restraint
System with ISOFIX attachments. (An
ISOFIX Child Restraint System may only
be installed if it has vehicle-specific or
universal approval in accordance with
the requirements of ECE-R44 or ECE-
R129.)
The Child Restraint System manufacturer
will provide you with instructions on how
to use the Child Restraint System with its
attachments for the ISOFIX anchorages.
OBC3030014R
ISOFIX anchorages have been provided
in the left and right outboard rear
seating positions. Their locations are
shown in the illustration. There are no
ISOFIX anchorages provided for the
centre rear seating position.
WARNING
Do not attempt to install a Child
Restraint System using ISOFIX
anchorages in the rear centre
seating position. There are no ISOFIX
anchorages provided for this seat.
Using the outboard seat anchorages,
for the CRS installation on the rear
centre seating position, can damage
the anchorages.

cushions to identify the position of
the ISOFIX anchorages in your vehicle
(see arrows in illustration). Both rear
outboard seats are equipped with a
pair of ISOFIX anchorages as well as a
corresponding top-tether anchorage on
the back side of the rear seats.
(Child Restraint Systems with universal
approval according to ECE-R44 or ECE-
R129 need to be fixed additionally with a
top-tether connected to the back side of
the rear seats.)
ISOFIX anchorages are located the seat
cushion of the rear seat left and right
outboard seating positions.

Restraint System in either of the rear
outboard seating positions:
1. Move the seat belt buckle away from
the ISOFIX anchorages.
2. Move any other objects away from
the anchors that could prevent a
secure connection between the Child
Restraint System and the ISOFIX
anchorages.
3. Place the Child Restraint System on
the vehicle seat, then attach the seat
to the ISOFIX anchorages according to
the instructions provided by the Child
Restraint System manufacturer.

WARNING
Take the following precautions when
using the ISOFIX system:

[Read and follow all installation
instructions provided with your Child
Restraint System.

[To prevent the child from reaching
and taking hold of unretracted
seat belts, buckle all unused rear
seat belts and retract the seat belt
webbing behind the child. Children
can be strangled if a shoulder belt
becomes wrapped around their neck
and the seat belt tightens.

[NEVER attach more than one
Child Restraint System to a single
anchorage. This could cause the
anchor or attachment to come loose
or break.

[Always have the ISOFIX system
inspected by your dealer after an
accident. An accident can damage
the ISOFIX system and may not
properly secure the Child Restraint
System.

strap over the seatback.
For vehicles with adjustable head
restraint, route the tether strap under
the head restraint and between the
head restraint posts, otherwise route
the tether strap over the top of the
seatback.
2. Connect the top-tether to the top-
tether anchorage, then tighten
the top-tether according to the
instructions of your Child Restraint
System’s manufacturer to firmly

WARNING
Take the following precautions when
installing the top-tether:

[Read and follow all installation
instructions provided with your Child
Restraint System.

[NEVER attach more than one Child
Restraint System to a single ISOFIX
top-tether anchorage. This could
cause the anchorage or attachment
to come loose or break.

[Do not attach the top-tether to
anything other than the correct top-
tether anchorage. It may not work
properly if attached to something
else.

[Child Restraint anchorages are
designed to withstand only those
loads imposed by correctly fitted
Child Restraint System.
Under no circumstances are they
to be used for adult seat belts or
harnesses or for attaching other
items or equipment to the vehicle.
Securing a Child Restraint System
with a lap/shoulder belt
When not using the ISOFIX system, all
Child Restraint Systems must be secured
to a rear seat with the lap part of a lap/
shoulder belt.

Safety system
The vehicles are equipped with a
Supplemental Air Bag System for the
driver’s seat and front passenger’s seats.
The front air bags are designed to
supplement the three-point seat belts.
For these air bags to provide protection,
the seat belts must be worn at all times
when driving.
You can be severely injured or killed
in an accident if you are not wearing
a seat belt. Air bags are designed to
supplement seat belts, but do not
replace them. Also, air bags are not
designed to deploy in every collision. In
some accidents, the seat belts are the
only restraint protecting you. WARNING
AIR BAG SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
ALWAYS use seat belts and Child
Restraint Systems - every trip, every
time, everyone! Even with air bags, you
can be seriously injured or killed in a
collision if you are improperly belted or
not wearing your seat belt when the air
bag inflates.
NEVER place a child in any Child
Restraint Systems or booster seat in the
front passenger seat. An inflating air
bag could forcefully strike the infant or
child causing serious or fatal injuries.
ABC - Always Buckle Children under
age 13 in the back seat. It is the safest
place for children of any age to ride. If
a child age 13 or older must be seated
in the front seat, he or she must be
properly belted and the seat should be
moved as far back as possible.
All occupants should sit upright with
the seatback in an upright position,
centred on the seat cushion with
their seat belt on, legs comfortably
extended and their feet on the floor
until the vehicle is parked and the
engine is turned off. If an occupant is
out of position during an accident, the
rapidly deploying air bag may forcefully
contact the occupant causing serious
or fatal injuries.
You and your passengers should never
sit or lean unnecessarily close to the air
bags or lean against the door or centre
console.
Move your seat as far back as possible
from front air bags, whilst still
maintaining control of the vehicle.

Where are the air bags?
Driver’s and passenger’s air bags (if
equipped)
OBC3030019R
„Driver’s front air bag
„Passenger's front air bag
OBC3030020R
Your vehicle is equipped with a
Supplemental Restraint System (SRS)
and lap/shoulder belts at both the driver
and passenger seating positions.
The SRS consists of air bags which are
located in the centre of the steering
wheel and the passenger’s side front
panel pad above the glove box. The air
bags are labelled with the letters “AIR
BAG” embossed on the pad covers.
The purpose of the SRS is to provide the
vehicle’s driver and front passengers
with additional protection than that
offered by the seat belt system alone
in case of a frontal impact of sufficient
severity.
WARNING
To reduce the risk of serious injury or
death from an inflating front air bags,
take the following precautions:

[Seat belts must be worn at all times
to help keep occupants positioned
properly.

[Move your seat as far back as
possible from front air bags, whilst
still maintaining control of the
vehicle.

[Never lean against the door or centre
console.

[Do not allow the front passenger
to place their feet or legs on the
dashboard.

[No objects (such as crash pad cover,
mobile phone holder, cup holder,
perfume or stickers) should be placed
over or near the air bag modules on
the steering wheel, instrument panel,
windscreen glass, and the front
passenger’s panel above the glove
box. Such objects could cause harm
if the vehicle is in a crash severe
enough to cause the air bags to
deploy.

[Do not attach any objects on front
windscreen and inside mirror.

[Hold the steering wheel at the 9
o’clock and 3 o’clock positions, to
minimise the risk of injuries to your
hands and arms.
